DST International (DSTi) - the leader in business solutions for the investment management industry - announces that Daiwa SB Investments (HK) Ltd - the Hong Kong subsidiary of one of Japan`s leading asset management firms - has selected HiPortfolio/3, HiCompliance and HiOrders for its investment management operations.
The solution will re-engineer its `end-to-end` fund management processes, providing an automated consistent and reconciled source of data for fund managers and financial accounting. Daiwa`s back office in Hong Kong supports its Hong Kong and Singapore asset management operations.
Kiyotaka Hoshino, Daiwa`s managing director and head of Asia, said: "Automating the data entry and compliance checking will make a significant difference to us. Not only will it save our employees a substantial amount of time, but it will also eliminate the possibility of errors that can occur as a result of manual data input. HiPortfolio/3 will update our administration, ensuring that we can easily add functions as and when we need them."
Rhonda Lepsch, DSTi`s CEO, Asia, said: "Daiwa have been a customer of DSTi`s for many years and we are thrilled that they have made the decision to upgrade to the latest technology from DSTi. HiPortfolio/3 is a market leader throughout the world and we are delighted to see its technology embraced by Hong Kong`s leading financial institutions."
